<?tbmb>

Description

This command is used to add margins to the outside of a table, on the bottom side only. The margin will adjust the table’s position in relation to the text surrounding it.

When a table is rotated using <?tborient>, the content of the table only is rotated and this does not include the margins. i.e. the top margin will always be applied above the table, whether or not the table is rotated.

You may specify a priority by which this margin is judged if margins need to be merged to save space — use the <?tbmbp> command.

Example 419. Add a margin outside a table on the bottom side

This example would add a 5mm margin to the outside of a table, on the bottom side only:

<?tbmb=5mm>

Syntax

<?tbmb height:uh>

height

Height of the margin, with optional decimal part and optional unit of measurement
